Correct HTML 4.01 Transitional?

Post by AGISB »

I am always trying to create correct HTML/XHTML . Now I got a problem and I am not sure how to solve this.

I am using

Code: Select all

<textarea wrap="hard" id="message" name="message"  rows="5" cols="40">
in my form. Now I get a warning about the wrap as it is no longer part of HTML. There is however no css variant of this so what to do about it?

I could leave it as all browsers correctly manage it but this could easily stop in the future.

Is there a workaround I am not aware of?

Another problem is that Opera seems to ignore the body css margin. Anyone has a solution to this?

Ok the Opera problem is solved. The padding needs to be set to 0 for Opera as well.

That's odd. The only thing that I found was a W3C article on CSS3. :?

Unless of course you want to just screw XHTML and go with straight HTML...
